Here are just some of the many blessings I am thankful for:
My salvation - I would be nothing without Christ
My husband - loving husband, a godly christian man, wonderful father, brilliant businessman
Mary Blakely and Emily - my sweet girls and the love and joy they bring
Baby #3 on the way- What a joyful blessing!
My parents - always loving and supportive
Our home - such a blessing to be able to raise my girls here
True friends - the ones that love you even when you screw up....the ones that support you through it all...the ones that accept that we are all different...the ones that you can only count on one hand...if that.
We are very excited about the coming arrival of baby #3...due June 4th. That is the official due date, however, because I will have a c-section, it will probably be the week before that. Happy Birthday to me! Because we live in a small 2 bedroom house, Brett and I have been tossing around ideas of where to expand. We are thinking about putting our bedroom down in the basement and redoing a few minor things down there to make it less...well, let's say...."basementy." We had been planning to add on, but with the downturn of the economy, we just can't seem to justify spending the money on an addition. We really can rework our exisiting space and make it doable. If only we could just move to the beach house....now there is an idea!
Thanks for the reminder to be grateful, even in hard times. I am so excited that you're expecting another little one!
ReplyDeleteYou have a BEACH house..what? where? Really :)
ReplyDeleteWe have talked about having a 3rd but worry about many things. IF we did have another one..the kids would have to share a room.
Our house is built up high because of flooding in this area...so we have a basement like area above the ground...which I dream of someday fixing up so we can use it..but the sad part is we don't have the money to do it and if we ever save enough for it..it would not be covered by insurance because of the flood zone thing. BUT at least we'd know if a hurricane was coming and we could put stuff upstairs! BUT if a bad one came it'd take out the whole house I'm sure!! Hmm...that's the bad thing about living near the ocean!
